re: #340 BLBfootballs
That is absolutely correct. The Chernobyl reactor design was an antiquated, uniquely Soviet monstrosity featuring a graphite-moderated core and no containment vessel! It was an atrocious design and the meltdown was prompted by its design and horribly dysfunctional operators. In-service American, French and Western nuclear reactors, thorium reactors, and the upcoming PBMR and HTR reactors have none of these issues.
You’re conveniently overlooking nuclear powers terrible safety record creating giant ants, spiders, grasshoppers and 50 foot women in the American southwest.
